Thanks On your forum post you have something like: > cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: ES > cfg80211: Received country IE: > > Which seems to be that my machine is defined as being in IE Heh, no IE stands for Information Element, that line indicates your AP has sent out country IEs on its beacons and on that beacon it is indicating your are in ES. > instead of Spain... and then The rest of your post indicates you had issues disconnecting after the country IE. I recommend to *not* use the module parameter as you are using, and just let your cfg80211 do the job. Your intel card already has regulatory information internally and it just world roams, with Intel cards cfg80211 just works by doing more work and helping compliance further, nothing further. Any issue with the module parameter should still be address but I just do recommend to not use it anyway. Now, as for your disconnect issue, you need to provide more information. Please provide the channel the AP is on, your 'iw list' output, prior to associating to the AP and also the same output *after* you have associated. Also then please get iw from git: And then apply this patch: http://bombadil.infradead.org/~mcgrof/patches/iw/show-country-ie.patch And provide the output of your scan, just the section for your AP is important. I should note 2.6.31 is old and has reached its end of life, no more fixes will be applied to it, you may want to then install the latest stable wireless drivers from 2.6.32. Ubuntu has a package for this.
